The 2022 Rossignol Black Ops Escaper is a versatile all-mountain ski designed for intermediate to advanced skiers seeking a balance of playfulness and stability across varied terrain. With its lightweight construction and accessible 92mm waist, it excels both on groomed runs and in softer snow, including bumps and trees. The ski's "freetouring" capabilities mean it's light enough for uphill travel while still offering reliable downhill performance for resort skiing. It prioritizes maneuverability and forgiveness, making it a fun and engaging option for exploring the entire mountain.
The Escaper features a Paulownia Wood Core, which is 30% lighter than average, contributing to its agility. Rossignol's Damp Tech and Air Tip technologies reduce vibrations and swing weight, enhancing control and turn initiation. Diago Fiber laminates add responsiveness without increasing weight. The ski's Rocker-Camber-Rocker profile provides float in powder, easy turn initiation, and good edge hold on firm snow. The sustainable design, incorporating recycled materials, also makes it an environmentally conscious choice.
Conditions:
Based on the provided rating system from Barrie's Outlet, here's how to interpret the condition of these used skis:
Top Sheet Condition 8.0: This top sheet condition may have lots of minor scratches or scuffs to the surface of the top sheet. There may be a few chips along the edges that will not need repair. There is no compromising damage to the ski’s top sheet.
Base Condition 8.0: This base condition may have lots of minor scratches or scuffs. They may have some substantial scratching or scrape that may need P-TEX to be fully repaired along with a tune; however, are still ready to use with no base welds needed. These may show signs of having a major P-TEX or base weld repair but these repairs are in good shape and ready to use. These skis have a fresh coat of wax on them and are ready to hit the slope.
All skis listed by Barrie’s Outlet are fully functional with no compromising damage to the ski or bindings, and they have been freshly waxed to be ready for use.
